Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

Late at night, inside the research institute, a figure was sneaking in along the ceiling.

This organization was extremely heavily guarded. It took him more than a month to find a tiny loophole in its defense and finally sneak in here.

As a spy, since the new generation Hokage had been constantly going in and out of this research institute, he realized that there was a big secret inside.

So, after finding the opportunity, he couldn't wait to sneak in.

But just after he entered, he stopped at the scene because there was a masked man opposite him who was as alert as he was, looking at him with strange eyes.

Well, the other person is from the same industry. I just don't know which village he is from.

But in this situation, it was impossible for the two of them to fight directly. So, after a few seconds of confrontation, the two of them turned around tacitly and began to search for useful information.

Both were professionals and made almost no noise.

They noticed that this was a biological laboratory, with a bunch of strange and bizarre flesh and blood creatures soaking in various nutrient solutions.

It looked like the result of some kind of biological experiment. They instinctively thought of human experiments.

Just think of Konoha as being hypocritical, saying no on the surface but still conducting human experiments in private.

It's just that these things look very strange, and neither of them can understand them. At this stage, the most important thing is to find the test data and send it back to the village. Then someone will naturally study it.

However, just as the two were carefully searching, the door to the back room of the laboratory opened, and the third colleague walked out.

The three of them remained silent for a while, and then continued to search in tacit understanding.

But after three people, the atmosphere became obviously tense. Because everyone was afraid that the other two were in the same group, and that they might be subdued quickly and silently.

So, the three of them searched while keeping an eye on the other two.

They found a lot of information and realized that this was the research institute of Hashirama's cells. This discovery made the three spies ecstatic.

The reputation of Senju Hashirama once intimidated the entire ninja world. All the major ninja villages tried their best to explore his secrets.

However, Konoha was on high alert in this regard, and they basically did not get any useful information.

But now, they actually found this crucial information. The three spies were surprised, but at the same time, they became more alert.

Each wanted to keep the information to himself, and would be best if he could kill the other two.

However, although the spies in the ninja world are not known for their fighting ability, they are all qualified ninjas. Once they fight, they will definitely attract the attention of Konoha.

The three people were wary of each other for a long time, and finally chose to retreat.

But just as the three of them turned to leave, the lights in the laboratory suddenly came on.

"I spent the whole night waiting and only caught three. If I had known, I would have waited a little longer."

The three men's faces changed drastically, and they formed seals with their hands almost at the same time, wanting to make a final resistance.

But the next second, several sword lights flashed, and the hands of the three people were chopped off at the wrist in an instant.

"Ah..." Amidst the screams, more figures appeared and used sealing techniques to completely seal the chakras of the three people.

Two of them bit the poison in their mouths and prepared to commit suicide, but the guards didn't even look at them and directly injected them with some kind of potion.

The two of them suddenly felt refreshed, and they felt like they couldn't die even if they wanted to! ! !

The other one, the backup plan, was some kind of self-destruct technique on his body. But after his chakra was sealed, he couldn't activate it and fainted from the pain.

Kakashi and Aoba walked out from the corner.

Kakashi is now the head of the Anbu in addition to being the Hokage's advisor. And the one who made the move just now was not Kamikawa Aoba.

The combat capability of these three spies is actually average. At most, they are at the level of Chunin. After all, combat capability is not necessary for this line of work.

In fact, as a spy, when he needs to fight, that's basically when he fails.

Moreover, the real masters are the treasures of the village. It is impossible to send them out to lurk.

These three guys have been lurking for years, and their combat power and reaction ability are very average. The one who took action was a senior ninja named Baiyun Zaojian.

He was a newly promoted jonin after Konoha's collapse plan, promoted from a special jonin. He was currently the captain of the research institute's garrison. He was also considered a half-disciple of Aoba.

The reason why he was called half was because he was a student of the Konoha Advanced Ninja School. Also, because he used a sword, Aoba gave him some special training. So, he was considered half of his disciple.

Baiyun Zaojian was also famous in his early years, and was known as the Vacuum Sword. It was somewhat similar to Qingye's Wind Chasing Sword, both of which were wind-based ninjutsu.

Qingye had been paying attention to him for some time. He became famous for his swordsmanship in his early years, so he naturally couldn't lose this skill. After observing Baiyun Zaojian for a while, Qingye taught his swordsmanship to Zaojian.

You know, Aoba is now the face of Konoha, the top expert, and the master of kendo. Zao was ecstatic about Aoba's teaching. At the same time, he also accepted Aoba's invitation and served as the captain of the garrison of the research institute.

As Qingye's famous skill, Qingye has perfected his wind-based ninjutsu over the years.

After learning Qingye's skills in the morning, Baiyun combined them with his original skills and began to vaguely find his own way.

He is now at the level of a true jonin. Once he integrates the two sword techniques and develops his own path, he will at least be at the level of an elite jonin. Maybe he can even become a character like White Fang.

Of course, there is another important factor that makes Aoba pay attention to the other party, that is, Baiyun Zao is considered to be one of the very few self-taught civilian ninjas.

Aoba intends to make him the second role model of Konoha.

The three spies were naturally tortured by Konoha's torture department. Sanno Ibiki had already made preparations in advance. What awaited them was a variety of inhumane tortures.

At this time, the land of rain.

Deidara is confronting a young man with a three-magatama Sharingan.

"If you dare to insult my art again, I will blow you to pieces today!"

What Deidara said was true. Ever since this guy named Shin joined Akatsuki, his foul mouth had irritated him more than once.

Deidara didn't get angry with the other party before because that guy had the legendary Wood Release. Deidara couldn't stand the provocation of the other party before and had a fight with him. As a result, he was almost killed instantly by the Wood Release.

Although he underestimated his enemy that time, he still had to give some face to the Wood Release.

But recently this guy has become more and more arrogant, and Deidara can no longer tolerate it. Even if it is Wood Release, he must blow this guy to pieces today.

But just when the two were facing each other and preparing to fight, Xiaonan appeared.

"Xin, the leader needs you to come over."
